Sometimes the dog catches the car. When it does, it quickly discovers that it bit off more than it can chew, and it has to let go. That’s exactly the situation that far-right Colorado politicians and dark money groups have found themselves in with Initiative 108. If passed, Initiative 108 would devastate rural and working-class urban communities and families throughout the state, while giving exorbitant tax cuts to the wealthiest Coloradans. The multi-millionaire proponents of Initiative 108, and their legislative cheerleaders, have now demanded a special session of the legislature — which started Monday — to enact a deal brokered through backroom negotiations, in exchange for removing 108 from the ballot.
